Abstract:

Epidemiological studies show that offspring subjected to maternal undernutrition during early pregnancy are prone to developing obesity and other diseases in adulthood. The hypothalamic energy regulating pathway may be altered in these offspring, with epigenetic changes as a core mechanism. Therefore, this thesis aimed to determine if epigenetic changes are present in this pathway in the hypothalami from offspring subjected to maternal undernutrition. The investigations are focused on the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) as an inhibitor of the anorexigenic neuropeptide pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC),

Abstract:

Background: Pregnancy associated cardiovascular pathologies have a significant impact on outcome for mother and child. Bioimpedance cardiography may provide additional outcome-relevant information early in pregnancy and may also be used as a predictive instrument for pregnancy-associated diseases. Methods: We performed a prospective longitudinal cohort trial in an outpatient setting and included 242 pregnant women. Cardiac output and concomitant hemodynamic data were recorded from 11th-13th week of gestation every 5th week as well as at two occasions post partum employing bioimpedance car

Recent studies have shown that activation of angiotensin-(1-7) / receptor Mas axis plays important role in intermediary metabolism, evidenced by increase in insulin sensitivity. The compound AVE 0991 is a non-peptide angiotensin-1-7 agonist, which effects in intermediary metabolism has not yet been studied. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the action of this agonist on the metabolic changes induced by fructose supplementation. Male Sprague-Dawley rats at 5 weeks of age were utilized.

This thesis concerns the mathematical modelling of phase transformations with a special emphasis on martensitic phase transformations and their application to the modelling of steels. In Chapter 1, we develop a framework that determines the optimal transformation strain between any two Bravais lattices and use it to give a rigorous proof of a conjecture by E.C. Bain in 1924 on the optimality of the so-called Bain strain. In Chapter 2, we review the Ball-James model and related concepts. We present some simplification of existing results. In Chapter 3, we pose a conjecture for the explicit form

Abstract:

Post-translational modifications (PTMs) to histone proteins play important roles in the regulation of gene expression. Histone lysine demethylases (KDMs) remove methyl groups from N?-amino methylated lysine residues. There are two classes of human KDMs; the flavin adenosine dinucleotide-dependent demethylases (the KDM1 subfamily) and the 2-oxoglutarate- (2OG) dependent Jumonji C (JmjC) demethylases (KDM2-7). Misregulation and mutation of histone demethylases are associated with multiple human diseases including cancer. Hence potent and selective inhibitors are of interest for investigations in

Interaction with toys was investigated as an example of inanimate enrichment. Toys that made a noise and/or could be chewed easily were found to be preferred to more robust toys, suggestin

Abstract:

Studying the approximation threshold of NP-hard optimization problems, i.e. the ratio of the objective value achievable by a polynomial time algorithm to that of the optimal solution is an important field in theoretical computer science. In the past two decades there has been significant development both in terms of finding good approximation algorithms, e.g. through the use of semidefinite programming and hardness of approximation, e.g. the development of Probabilistically Checkable Proofs and Unique Games Conjecture. Trying to prove lower bounds for the approximation threshold of an optimiza

Abstract:

The study area in northeast British Columbia extends from the Rocky Mountains in the west to the Fort Nelson Lowland in the east, and includes the westernmost extend of the Laurentide Ice Sheet (LIS) and the easternmost extend of the Cordilleran Ice Sheet (CIS) in the Late Pleistocene. Surficial mapping conducted over portions of the Fontas and Fort Nelson map areas (NTS 094I/SW and 094J/SE, respectively) provides information on sediment distribution and characteristics as well as glacial history. This information has direct implications for geotechnical investigations, aggregate resources and

Abstract:

One desirable property of machine learning algorithms is the ability to balance the number of parameters in a model in accordance with the amount of available data. Incorporating nonparametric Bayesian priors into models is one approach of automatically adjusting model capacity to the amount of available data: with small datasets, models are less complex (require storing fewer parameters in memory), whereas with larger datasets, models are implicitly more complex (require storing more parameters in memory). Thus, nonparametric Bayesian priors satisfy frequentist intuitions abou

Abstract:

Whole-genome shotgun sequencing is an experimental technique used for obtaining information about a genome’s sequence, whereby it is broken up into many short (possibly overlapping) segments whose sequence is then determined. A long-standing use of sequencing is in genome assembly – the problem of determining the sequence of an unknown genome, which plays a central role for the sequencing of novel species. However, even within the same species, the genomes of two individuals differ, and though these variations are relatively small, they account for the observed variation in phenotypes. A large

Abstract:

Recently there have been several proposals to use redundant execution of diverse replicas to defend against attempts to exploit memory corruption vulnerabilities. However, redundant execution relies on the premise that the replicas behave deterministically, so that if inputs are replicated to both replicas, any divergences in their outputs can only be the result of an attack. Unfortunately, this assumption does not hold for multithreaded programs, which are becoming increasingly prevalent -- the non-deterministic interleaving of threads can also cause divergences in the replicas. This the

Full text

Abstract:

Intravenous immunoglobulin is a human blood derived product that is used to treat immunodeficiencies and autoimmune disorders. An adverse side effect of IVIg therapy is hemolysis. Patients who experience hemolysis are mainly blood group A or AB. Clinical laboratory studies have demonstrated that IVIg contains ABO blood group antibodies, which can bind complement proteins. This study hypothesizes that anti-A/B in IVIg will bind to A/B antigens and activate complement in a dose dependant manner, which may lead to enhanced RBC phagocytosis. This study observed that the quantity of ABO antigens do

Abstract:

Extremal combinatorics studies how large a collection of objects can be if it satisfies a given set of restrictions. Inspired by a classical theorem due to Erdos, Ko and Rado, Simonovits and Sos posed the following problem: determine how large a collection of graphs on the vertex set {1,...,n} can be, if the intersection of any two of them contains a triangle. They conjectured that the largest possible collection, containing 1/8 of all graphs, consists of all graphs containing a fixed triangle (a triangle-star). The first major contribution of this thesis is a confirmation of this conjecture.
